Sweet Lily:
We LOVE what a little artist you are becoming. We have a giant pad of paper that we lay out on the floor and you adore coloring whether it is with crayons, pens, pencils, or markers. Markers don't usually work out too well because you enjoy how easy it is to color on yourself and your clothes, and then I have to step in and take them away (usually by force) and the scene ends in a giant puddle of tears. So, needless to say, we don't use too many markers around here! (But thank goodness for washable markers! Well worth the extra couple of bucks!)
You love to scribble and draw straight lines. You are not yet drawing anything in particular, just enjoying the art you can make all by yourself. You are really beginning to learn your colors and it is fun to see you carefully selecting them and lining up the ones you have used when you are finished. You are DELIGHTED whenever we go out for breakfast and they give you a few crayons to color with to keep you busy and enjoy racing home to add them to your box of "colors." One of your current favorite activities is to carry your box of crayons into a room and dump them all out all over the floor. Every once in a while you think it is fun to pick them up, but mostly there is just great joy in spilling the crayons all over the floor. It is such fun to see what you create. I am hoping you get your artistic streak from your Daddy!
